[bodytext] => Hush 'lil baby, don't you cry, or at least please try I know you miss your mommy; I'm sorry But wipe them tears, I'll chase them fears Big sis' is here, and I'll keep you safe Your friends, they're gettin' shot, down the block Mommy's out drunk tonight; probably get in a fight Daddy's gettin' high; come with me, don't ask why I'll try to make it better; now lemme see that letter We gotta save up for college, to get you knowledge But every time you tried to save some money Our house got broken into; it got stolen, honey Don't cry, it'll be alright; don't give up this fight I know you miss your mom, and you miss your dad But at least you don't miss the life that you never had I'll hold you all through the night; you shine so bright When you're happy; don't worry; daddy'll come, maybe And even if he's not at your play, you know I will be there Mom and dad might not care, but I do And I love you; you better know I do, now I'll give you that life, don't ask me how But I promise I'll do it, baby, don't cry Big sis' is here, and I'll keep you safe Mommy may not be here; haven't seen her for awhile But don't cry, baby girl; I'd do anything to make you smile Wanna see them pretty 'lil teeth, those bright blue eyes And 'lil sis', don't cry, or at least promise that you'll try Please don't ask me why; just sleep, 'cause this is my lullaby.
